| Setting off up Wet Side Edge waiting for the sun to appear.... |
 |
| ....then suddenly all is light.... |
 |
| ....but not for long as the cloud came down before arriving at the summit of Grey Friar 770m, 2526ft |
 |
| A short climb later the memorial to the crew of a Halifax bomber appears. The plane just missed clearing the top of Great Carrs (2575ft) claiming the lives of all 8 RAF crew. |
 |
| and again |
 |
| There still remains some of the wreckage on the site |
 |
| The route continued from Great Carrs summit to Swirl How |
 |
| Where I was still surrounded by cloud! |
 |
| From Swirl how there is a steep descent down Prison Band.... |
 |
| ....with views to Levers water below the Coniston fells |
 |
| The final climb of the day leads up Wetherlam 2502ft.... |
 |
| ....with views back to Swirl How and Great Carrs still catching the cloud |
 |
| Lingmoor fell (of recent acquaintance with Danny) comes into view from Wetherlam, also Blea tarn and Little Langdale tarn |
 |
| Fell Foot farm finally in view where the car awaits, phew! |
